Thanks for the compliments on the rifle. It's nothing fancy. I received a pretty nice .270 tang safety. I've never been a fan of the .270 Winchester after a goat rodeo with one a few years back. So I started looking at options when I found a factory take off barrel in 7x64.
The barrel was blued, but the finish was not in the best state though the bore and crown were perfect. After my 'smith installed the barrel I gave it a coating with Aluma-Hyde II in stainless(what I had on hand). I rubbed some tru-oil into the stock and that was it.
I am pretty happy with it, and I was able to do it all on a budget.

I am looking forward to seeing everyone!
